This integration gives us some new insights into the effectiveness of a pollution tax as a pollution control device when the plant location of the firm is endogenized. It is shown that when the plant location is endogenous, as pollution taxes become higher, the firm moves its plant towards the CBD, causing higher pollution damage to the CBD residents, if the production function exhibits decreasing returns to scale.82482 bytesapplication/pdfen-USendogenous plant location; pollution taxes[SDGs]SDG11Pollution damage; Pollution taxes; Location; Pollution control; Taxation; Urban planning; Pollution; industrial location; location decision; pollution tax; urban areajournal article10.1023/B:EARE.0000035440.20693.f6http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/186556/1/57.pdf
